Travel bloggers are mostly ignored when it comes to award season. But not this year. This year, there are two travel blogger awards on offer.
For the very first time, the Weblog Awards have a 'best travel blog' category. 
After a short nominating period, the finalists have been listed. They are...
MyKugelhopf
Folie a Deux
The Asian Traveler
Curious Expeditions
Notes from the Road
The Lost Girls
LL World Tour
Jaunted - The Pop Culture Travel Guide
Intelligent Traveler
The Cranky Flier
There's a few of my favorites there, as well as some I can see I'll be spending some time at getting to know in the future.
It's great to see fellow travel bloggers getting acknowledged and recognized, so get out and vote. I have but I'm not going to tell you who for.
But wait, there's more...
